Students who benefit from 504/IEPs in high school (and middle school) benefit from extended planning in the college search process. Join us as we discuss ways to enhance skills while in high school, how to identify schools that will continue to provide the supports that have ensured success for your child currently, and ways to engage your student in the choice process to reduce stress for the whole family. Topics to be covered included standardized testing, college visits, and identifying and anticipating a student's needs in a post secondary environment. Fees are per family.

Planning for college can be intimidating as you and your high schooler consider his/her future plans. We will navigate these uncharted waters with an overview of what to expect as you begin the college search, selection, and application process. Tips and hints will be provided and myths will be dispelled. There will be time for discussion and questions. Fees are per family.
